Koleh uses his music’s unique and refreshing blend of South-east Asian instruments, samples and contemporary Indie-pop to transport listeners to Borneo rainforests and village long-houses.

Embracing his heritage, the Kenyah Dayaks of Borneo, Koleh aims to carry on and share his tradition by playing the Sampe’, which is a traditional Dayak lute / guitar like instrument. This desire for cultural expression has a large influence on his music, as well as other contemporary artists such as D.D Dumbo, Bombay Bicycle Club and Beach House.

The young artist is delighted to release ‘Maze’; the lush, rainforest-melancholy second single from his upcoming ‘Songs From Upriver’ EP.

“It’s easy to be charmed by this sweet gust of breezy indie pop.”- Dave Ruby Howe, Triple J
